i know there's a youtuber named joe something who uses a similarly altered version bc i only noticed him pop up in my video game poo poo because i saw the icon on his thumbnail and had to remember that it's from the hasbro cartoon and not the cspam forums on somethingawful dot com

so I'd have to imagine it's this

to be somewhat more precise, the really commited dems are inevitably in the middle of the intersection between every way you can fail to understand the world

first they are smug pricks who think they're the intellectual elite by default, therefore they also refuse to believe that their worldview could have any fundamental flaw in it

second they claim to believe in empiricism, but since the dogma in infallible they can't adjust it when it fails and since everybody else must be dumber than them they only listen to each other, so they can't be taught by failure either

third they're so well off that material conditions can't force them to change anything major about their thinking as society basically caters to them in every way

all in all its the perfect breeding ground for the worst kind of ignorance, the one that thinks its smarter than anybody else. tl;dr: a party of fishmechs
also the radlib they pretend to give a poo poo about once every four years when he tells everyone they should vote for the democrat again, is a linguist who claims to not know what dialectical materialism is, and that's the "far left" of american politics - not the far left of the overton window but the farthest left that is theoretically possible if you lean out of the window until you're nearly falling out and crane your neck with a pair of binoculars

P sure it falls under parody, yeah. It's being done as a reference, it's not like you're selling nojoe buttons under the guise of them being authentic gi joe merch. This is especially true if you're not even selling anything and you're just using the symbol for a protest sign, thereby not gaining any material compensation for the use of the logo

I watched this guy's reaction which contained the entirety of Vaush's video sped up by a lot and the stumbling block he keeps coming to is comparing the (flawed yet sympathetic) Labor of Marx & Lenin's day to the American Democratic Party of today, which is explicitly hostile to labor and hell-bent on rooting out any socialist sympathies in its ranks. Yes, the left should invest at least nominally in electorialism that improves our conditions and acts as an on-ramp to radicalizing others...that's what Bernie was. A compromise. Supporting Biden in Vaush's example would be like the working class trying to stave off the return of feudalism by supporting a different yet equally evil monarch's claim to the throne. There, you no longer need to be curious. He's just grossly overestimating the left sympathies of the democrats and ignoring that people like Biden create the conditions that people like Trump capitalize on.

It's almost as if running a centrist candidate to try to appeal to "independents" and "reasonable" Republicans is pointless because you could literally trot out Reagan with a (D) after his name and the GOP would scream to high heaven about how they're a socialist marxist communist nightmare who will destroy our country.

Heck, New Mexico isn’t even a swing state and I counted 17 Trump 2020 items before I saw my first Biden anything. Lots of Bernie, lots of Hillary stuff still out there, 1 Biden 2020.

It’s frightening how bad this campaign is.

That’s true, their entire worldview is essentially that they birthed Millenials to be little versions of themselves and that’s why they are so disappointed in us... but we received none of the benefits or economic freebies they got, so we are doubly entitled and doubly deprived, which is why we, as a generation, stopped loving and started killing ourselves in record numbers.

Zoomers are now deciding that if the choice is destruction or self-destruction, they clearly don’t want to be Millenials Againiels

Joe is really electable.. which is why he lost all those primaries in his prime. Now he's falling apart he's bound to win!

I could honestly seeing it being a very low-turn out election, even for American standards.

There are people who think that this election won't have historically low turnout? It's happening in the middle of a pandemic, with an incumbent Republican who's failed in every possible way and a Democrat who's a rapist white supremacist warmongerer.

I've been eligible to vote for four (presidential) elections now, and every one of them is supposedly the most important of my life.

This is strange because they are in fact quite obviously less important every single time.

I've never heard a good definition of dialectical materialism that many leftists agree with. What's yours? 'Materialism' is easy to define. 'Dialectical' is the hard part.
